EP-3100
100% Epoxy Floor Coating |
|
Description:
EP- 3100 is a two component, 100% solids, low viscosity, water clear, low odor, cyclo-aliphatic, high-build, chemical resistant epoxy.
USES:
EP- 3100 epoxy is used to create industrial seamless floors in manufacturing plants, mechanical warehouses, industrial kitchens, and garages. In combination with color quartz or paint chips it can be used to create a decorative floor coating.
Advantages:
- Low Viscosity
- USDA Approved
- 100% Solids
- Chemical Resistant
- High Strength
- Water Clear or Pigmented
- Low Odor
- High-Build
- Superior Adhesion
Coverage: 150 – 300 sq. ft./gallon depending on conditions.
Packaging: 1 gallon kits.
Inspection:
Concrete must be clean, dry, and free of grease, paint, oil, dust, curing agents, or any foreign material that will prevent proper adhesion. The concrete should be at least 2500 psi and have at least a 5 mil profile, which feels like 30 grit sandpaper. The concrete should be porous and be able to absorb water. A minimum of 14 days cured is required on all concrete.
Surface Preparation:
Prepare raw surface by sanding, grinding, water blasting and or sandblasting or shot blasting to achieve a clean, porous and uniform surface that will allow product to soak in and bond permanently.
Mixing:
As a coating: Premix each component separately. Mix (2:1 ratio) 2 parts A with 1 part B, by volume, into a clean container. Mix thoroughly with a low speed (400-600 rpm) drill motor for 3 minutes. Make sure to scrap the sides and bottom of the container during mixing. Mix only the amount of material that can be used within the pot life.
Application:
Epoxy may be too thick to apply with a sprayer; therefore, we recommend applying with a “ 3/16" NAP Mohair ” roller, which has a solvent resistant core or use any soft brush. Apply going sideways and then up and down to cover all surfaces. Depending on the look, thickness, chemical and abrasion resistance desired, a second coat could be applied once the first coat is dry. Apply in a maximum thickness of 10 miles.
Limitations:
- Do not apply at temperatures below 50°F or above 95°F
- Do not apply over concrete under hydrostatic pressure.
- For interior use only unless protected by an UV resistant coating.
- Concrete must be cured for a minimum of 14 days.
